The Chapter House of York Minster and its vestibule stand as a high point in English architectural design. Built during the 1280s under Archbishop John Romeyn (1286-96), the Chapter House was swiftly completed and by 1291 work was underway on the Minster's nave. York, Chapter House and vestibule, 1280 exterior. ©Raguin MMKThe Chapter House's octagonaldesign is achieved without a central column, a tour-de-force of engineering skill and aesthetic grace. Seven sides of the buildings are glazed with five-lancet windows, each with tracery lights of three multi-lobed circles. A series of seats long the walls served as places for each of the cannons.
